Is customs taxation of Ecoflow type charging stations currently in effect?

As the State Customs Service of Ukraine explains, charging stations are manufactured by the manufacturer in the form of a single body, which, in addition to the main unit - the battery, may include electronic units, such as an inverter, a rectifier, etc. Externally, the station housing is equipped with connectors for various types of electrical equipment. Charging stations are a device whose main function is the early accumulation of electricity in a rather capacious battery. In view of this, and in accordance with the provisions of the UCTZED, charging stations are classified as lithium-ion batteries under code 8507 60 00 00 with the corresponding preferential taxation with import duty and VAT.

DMSU draws attention to the fact that when the charging station is not made by the manufacturer with the use of lithium-ion batteries (for example, from nickel-cadmium, iron-nickel, lead, and other batteries), in such a case, the import of charging stations into the customs territory of Ukraine is carried out on general grounds .
